Thanks for your nice comments. May I remind you that this is a Fractal Forum, not a psycho test ? Instaed of dealing with the subject (New Fractal World) you told the forum that you do not like my nose. Sorry for the rest of the forum, because now they will not lknow what it is about. An interesting story! Thanks again you are one of the reasons I did not come back Albrecht

Albrecht's "Mandel Zoom 1" into his "The New Mandelbrot"
by Harold Lane 14 Aug '22

Here's Albrecht's "Mandel Zoom 1" into his "The New Mandelbrot" made with his multifractal_12 (MFR) formula. The "shortlinks" to his image and its PAR file point to my server: "Mandel Zoom 1" is in shades of red, blue, gold and silver: https://bit.ly/50205FA6-GIF Here's its PAR file -- complete with his multifractal_12 formula: https://bit.ly/50205FA6-PAR The "metallic" color maps in Albrecht's fractal remind me of the color maps used in these images: Paul W Carlson's image (the creator of the "orbit trap" method of fractal creation, I believe) : https://bit.ly/paul-w-carlson1-gif Jack Valero's "maraschino surprise": https://bit.ly/jack-valero_1-gif ...from an old Fractalus Contest. The web site (created by Damien M. Jones) still exists, but doesn't have all its pages available: https://www.fractalus.com/ - Hal Lane ######################## # hallane(a)earthlink.net ########################

Here's another new image from Albrecht which he calls "The New Mandelbrot"
by Harold Lane 14 Aug '22

Albrecht's "The New Mandelbrot" was created using his multifractal_12 (MFR) formula. Below are the "shortlinks" I created to his image and its PAR file on my server. Here's Albrecht's suburb alternate Mandel: I especially like the "gold dust" sprinkled throughout his New Mandelbrot! https://bit.ly/50205-53-GIF Here's its PAR file -- complete with the multifractal_12 formula: https://bit.ly/50205-53-PAR - Hal Lane ######################## # hallane(a)earthlink.net ########################

Oops! The critical link in my previous post was cut into two pieces...

I just now discovered that the critical link in my previous post about Jim Muth was cut into two pieces: ........"https://mailman.xmission.com/hyperkitty/list/fractint@mailman.xmiss ion.com/l" ........"atest?count=200&page=1" I reconstructed the above link (to the new Fractint "Archives") -- which also includes all new posts -- and made a shortlink to it: https://bit.ly/Fractint-List Fyi: If you ever find links that are cut into two or more pieces by email or listserve systems, you can reconstruct and successfully use the original link in your web browser's address bar: Carefully copy all of the original link's pieces (one by one) and paste them *adjacent* to one another in your web browser's address bar and hit <Enter> . - Hal Lane ######################## # hallane(a)earthlink.net ########################

Albrecht has created some new images using his MFR (multifractal_12) formula
by Harold Lane 12 Aug '22

Albrecht has created some new images using his MFR (multifractal_12) formula. I put one of his images and its PAR file on my server and created "shortlinks" to them. Although the bit.ly links below are HTTPS, the address on my server that the link redirects to is HTTP. Some web browsers may not like HTTP pages. I'm looking into adding a certificate to my server to allow HTTPS links to be handled/served. I like the organized chaos along the bottom edge of Albrecht's fractal -- as well as the tunnel. The tunnel arches are made of pretty amazing stuff, too... Albrecht calls this nice image: "Entrance to the new fractal world": https://bit.ly/50205F03-GIF PAR file (includes Albrecht's multifractal_12 formula): https://bit.ly/50205f03-PAR - Hal Lane ######################## # hallane(a)earthlink.net ########################

I wonder if Jim Muth would be willing to do a "Fractal of the Month"?

I wonder if Jim Muth would be willing to do a "Fractal of the Month"? I was really happy when he made this post (a year and a half ago) : ---------------- JIm Muth speaking. (FOTD) Is anyone still there? I'm alive and well and recovering from fractal burnout. by Jim Muth Or maybe I should be asking if I'm still subscribed I'm again finding unexpected images in unlikely formulas. Maybe I'll soon be thinking of getting the Fractal of the Day started again. Jim Muth --------------- I was able to do a search - just now -- for: Muth at: https://mailman.xmission.com/hyperkitty/list/fractint@mailman.xmission.com/l atest?count=200&page=1 to find his above post. Note: To view posts, I only click on (at the bottom of the page) : - the "page number digits" in the "Older" "Newer" area, (the server response is a little slow; be patient), and - "# of posts per page" choice, and - the Search window (at the top of page). I've avoided clicking on the dates at the left edge of the page after initial poor results when trying that. The transferred Fractint "/hyperkitty/"archive appears complete -- I was able to look at 20-year-old posts. I just tested -- you can still post to the [Fractint] list by emailing to: fractint(a)mailman.xmission.com and it appears that no account or login is necessary. My old, carefully saved, login was not recognized when I tried it quite some time ago. - Hal Lane ######################## # hallane(a)earthlink.net ########################
